What a week!

Feb. 23rd our sweet daughter turned 2. We watched from a far as she turned 1 never thinking a year later we would also watch her turn 2 and still be so far from having her in our arms. We were suppose to enter the courts early this week and found out at that time we were missing our TECO paper work. We called and called but TECO in Houston would not return our phone call. So we drove there and when we ask about the status of our paperwork we were told we must be mistaken as they had no file on us. But it just so happened { thank you God} Rick had saved his receipt from them and brought it with him. When we showed it to them they were not happy and finally had to admit that our file was lost. They said they would look for it and call us the next day but we never heard a word from them. We drove there today to find out what is going on only to find it was closed. So we spent today reprinting our forms and paperwork so we can start all over. Some of the forms were sent from Taiwan so we are not sure how long it will take to get it all back together and notarized again. So we can start with TECO again. But I can tell you this it has been a very long time since I have felt this tired and discouraged! But God is so good to us I know He will come through for us once again!



Lord let us rest in you!

Happy Valentines Day Everyone!

We have just been ticking off the holidays waiting to get to Easter so we can go get Braeley and bring her home. Well yesterday we got word we will once again not be traveling at Easter to bring our sweet baby girl home. The paper work never even made it into the courts yet and we have to get a date for first ruling and then wait around 6 weeks for the final ruling then get a visa appointment. Soooooo as we once again deal with the pain of watching our daughter have her 2nd birthday from a far as we did her first we ask for all the prayers we can get. Please pray we don't  have trouble getting Braeley's visa and we can travel soon. Pray for a speedy court process. I know it is all in God's time and He does have a plan! This wait has been so hard on Alana our 5 year old. She has waited so long to get her baby sister home. I pray we see the light at the end of the tunnel soon!
